The American Studies program offers a special concentration in Asian American Studies. This concentration requires minors to take the senior seminar plus five other courses that specifically address Asian American culture. The special concentration enables, thorough exploration, the emergence of a fast-growing but still largely invisible racial minority in the United States. To develop an individualized program of study email the Asian American Studies program director, Professor Min Song.
